AN ACT CONCERNING THE PUTNAM PHALANX.

HB 6721 establishes a task force to examine the history and traditions of the Putnam Phalanx, a volunteer group that supported military members and veterans from before the Civil War through World War II. The task force will identify potential initiatives to reestablish a similar organization focused on supporting current service members and veterans. The bill does not create new programs but seeks to study historical models for modern veteran support. This procedural bill directly affects the process of evaluating historical veteran support organizations.
